There was a 'breakthrough, disruptive' (vaporware) power generating idea some years ago that would use the motion of the boat to generate DCV & charge your batteries. Description was mostly Magic Black Box, though it seemed to use sliding weights or pendulums under your settees to make power. I actually burned some number of life-hours calculating just how much energy you could hope for from such a device, under 'optimal' conditions (which conditions would make Webb Chiles puke his kidneys out), and the results were laughable. Something like 1/20th kWh/day. Love me some renewable energy, lived it for 16 years now, but my god is it a playground for dreamers, schemers, and scammers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Salazar 107 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I submit another Uke player, James Hill, who presently lives in Nova Scotia. If you just want to hear the tune skip ahead to 3:20 or so, but I think it is worth listening the the whole thing... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder about the registration numbers, is a "WN" number valid anywhere? "small amount of rot" oh yeah. Calling this thing an ugly-ass abortion would be doing a grave injustice to aesthetically displeasing hindparts of the pre-terminated throughout all history. - DSK 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The ad specifies a 200lb anchor, a 750lb anchor, and a 1200lb "hurricane anchor". So no, I'd say not undersized for an 80 footer. We can cross "insufficient anchor mass" off the list of things to be concerned about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
